Schoterweg 202021 HM HaarlemPatrimoniumbuurt

Stately city villa with a monumental appearance, deep rear garden, two terraces and surprisingly versatile possibilities. At Schoterweg 20, you will find this exceptional city villa dating from circa 1870, a municipal monument built in an eclectic architectural style. A home full of character, space and a layout you do not often come across. Arranged over four full residential floors, the property offers, among other things, two spacious living rooms, two kitchens, four bedrooms, four bathrooms, a walk-in closet, a deep rear garden and two lovely terraces. This makes the property not only a wonderful family home, but also highly suitable for those wishing to combine living and working, for dual occupancy, or for anyone looking for space for an au pair, a home practice or guest accommodation. It is also ideal for families with older children who would like their own space. Thanks to the mixed-use zoning, several different uses are conceivable. The property has been tastefully renovated, combining comfort and contemporary finishes with the original atmosphere of the house. Think high ceilings, wide wooden floorboards, an elegant marble floor, a monumental staircase and a beautiful skylight that illuminates the stairwell in a truly special way. The house has been excellently maintained and is ready to move into. With an energy label B, considerable attention has also been paid to sustainability. The property is fitted with 14 solar panels, double glazing throughout and roof insulation. The rear garden is a wonderful surprise: deep, green, sunny and peaceful. A true oasis in the middle of the city, beautifully landscaped and featuring an approximately 65-year-old lilac tree that provides natural shade on warm days. From the garden, a steel staircase leads up to the terrace on the first floor, directly adjoining the living room. LOCATION: The location is ideal: central, yet peaceful.
